Detailed explanation-1: -The main function of Golgi bodies or Golgi apparatus is to synthesize proteins and lipids. The complex proteins and lipids like glycolipids and glycoproteins are manufactured by Golgi bodies.
Detailed explanation-2: -> GOLGI APPARATUS: These were discovered by camillo golgi. The material synthesized by ER is transformed, modified and packaged by golgi. They are the main site involved in formation of glycoproteins and glycolipids, So this option is correct.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glycoproteins, glycolipids, and proteoglycans on cell surfaces play critical roles in cell-cell recognition and the formation of tissues. They recognize and bind to carbohydrate receptors (lectins) on adjacent cells, leading to cell-cell attachment as well as intracellular responses in the interacting cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -Glycoprotein synthesis occurs in two organelles in sequence such as endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus.
